How does data integration work?

Data integration is like bringing together all the ingredients for a complex recipe. For Chipotle, it means combining information from various sources – like health inspections, staff sickness, and supplier data – into one central system. Palantir Foundry then processes this big picture, helping Chipotle spot potential food safety issues much faster than before.
